I don't know that it is related to the biotin, but is related to weight loss. Your body is releasing a lot of stored up toxins during rapid weight loss.

1). I was ok with a week. Hopefully, you will too, but do you have a back up plan if your not ready? 2). I vote stay overnight. I stayed 2 nights and they were needed. -

Cell Service From Us Towers In Tj?

Call about adding an international plan. The last time I checked it was pretty pricey for txt and outrageous for cellular data and calls. -
Cell Service From Us Towers In Tj?
mcwestfam replied to Lollyx3's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
No. Mine changed the moment I crossed the boarder. I have AT&T. But the hospital and hotel had wifi. So I just kept my phone on airplane mode to avoid additional cost. I downloaded a free txting app that I could use on wifi. -
What Vitamins Do You Take?
mcwestfam replied to PetraLuxor's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I am taking centrum chewable and sublingual b12. I'll probably add biotin at some point. -
All my adult life I have dealt with stressful situations by grabbing something to snack on, a cigarette, and a glass if wine. But now that I have given up all my vices I seem to be at a loss. This last week has been horrible. Have had some horrible things happen in my family. And all I can do lately is cry. Any suggestions?
-
Thanks so much everyone for all your thoughts and suggestions. Asking for help is something that's very difficult for me. And having all of your support is awesome!! And I think I probably will set up an appt with a psych. Just to have someone to talk to if nothing else. I'm pretty alone in this journey. Well, except for you guys

I wish I felt up to "vigorous" exercise. I'm just three weeks out today and walking about 2.5 miles a day and that has me beat!! But hopefully soon I will be back in the gym!! Thanks for the ideas!!
-
Awesome idea! Thanks! I may have to order a couple of those.

Help! 3 Mo Out And Still Can't Get Anything Down But Thin Liguid
mcwestfam replied to CHERCOONS's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am so sorry you feel so horrible! But like the others have said you need to see a physician. Even if you don't have a personal physician you can always go to a walk in clinic and hopefully they can refer you to a specialist. Hope you feel better soon and get some answers!! -
Dehydration Headaches? How Do I Increase My Fluid Intake?
mcwestfam replied to imgonnaloseit!'s topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Right now at this early stage it's much more important to get your fluid in!! Fluids first protein second. Try some powerade zero or some pedialyte to get thinks going in the right direction. Hope you feel better soon!! If not please call your doctor or go to the hospital. Dehydration can get very serious very quickly!! -
